I found this still quite young. Best after a few hours of air. Violet, soot, dark fruit aromas; similar flavors along with some tobacco. Quite tannic. Drink or hold. Good QPR ($16.50USD).

Solid, By the book. Deep purple. Exhibits Raspberry, plum, black pepper and leather. Flavor is consistent with the nose. Finish is long and flavory with an accent of tobacco leaves. Medium tannins, medium acidity, full bodied. NI:3, FI:22, FC:8, B:3, L:4

Still heavy and rich but flavors are separating. Even with 1-2 hours of air didn’t enjoy.
